Description from the seller

SIGNED Covert to Overt: The Under/Overground Art of Shepard Fairey
Artist/Author: Shepard Fairey
Publisher: Rizzoli
Format: Hardcover
Condition: As new


A highly sought-after monograph documenting the rise of one of the most influential figures in contemporary street art, Covert to Overt offers an in-depth look into the visual language and cultural impact of Shepard Fairey. Known globally for his iconic OBEY campaign and politically charged works, Fairey bridges underground graffiti culture with mainstream visual art and design.
This signed publication captures the evolution of his work—from raw, subversive street interventions to widely recognized graphic imagery that has shaped modern visual culture. Richly illustrated, the book features a compelling mix of posters, murals, mixed-media works, and behind-the-scenes insights into Fairey’s creative and ideological process.

The striking cover design reflects Fairey’s signature aesthetic: bold contrasts, layered textures, and propagandistic influences, making the book itself a collectible art object.

Conclusion:
A visually powerful and culturally significant publication that documents the transition of street art into the global art scene. Ideal for collectors, enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the intersection of art, activism, and design.
